Julie and Brendan Cook

Nhill couple Julie Dickerson and Brendan Cook were married at Pine Plains Lodge in the Wyperfield National Park in April.

Having the ceremony, reception and accommodation at at one location meant that the wedding celebrations were relaxed and laid back. After a morning ceremony, the couple enjoyed a ‘long lunch’ with guests, followed by dinner and more celebrating until the wee hours of the morning.

The bride, a talented cake baker and decorator, made her own wedding cake, as well as delightful home-made jam and sauce as bonbonniere for guests.

The official wedding images, taken by Leanne Mulcahy, were taken on the ‘Snowdrift’ (an ancient Mallee sand dune), providing a natural and dramatic backdrop.
